    I am really enjoying watching your business grow. Nice new sign, but pleased you have kept the Beverly Shear sign up as a homage to your building's heritage. Don't be afraid to throw out stuff you are not using...even if you find yourself needing it a week later. If you don't stay ahead of the clutter, it will bury you. Organization is important in as much as if you can't find what you are looking for, you might as well not have it. I was talking to Matt Krug last weekend and we both commented on how it has been great to watch your business develop on UA-cam. Keep up the good work and good luck!

    What exactly do you do (brass instrument manufacturing or general fabrication)? I don't know why the algorithm is showing me your video, but as a hydraulics mechanic, I've bent a bit of tubing, using a variety of hand tools, up to floor-mounted fancy mandrel benders with computerized measuring devices. Aviation standards are very rigid, allowing for very little damage on the outside of the radius, and no kinking on the inside. It was cool to see your techniques (and printed die!) to produce extremely clean bends on thin-walled, but fairly large-diameter tube. 👍

    Jacob Medlin also has a similar opinion on bending tubes, with the ripples and the endless hammering seen as an old school, undesirable technique. However, Sarah Willis has commented that once the Alexander guys brought some horns for testing without saying anything, and Sarah and get colleagues found that some horns were much "better" than others, and it turns out those were the hand hammered ones. What's your take on that? Maybe the hand hammered ones have more variability and just selected the best ones for the Berlin Phil to test. You can still order them from Alexander, it's just a mere additional 1000EUR on top 😅

    • @milesomalley5605
      @milesomalley5605 2 місяці тому

      The difference between a bell that's bent with lead and hammered/filed, and a bell bent with ice then hydroformed (which is how modern Alex bends) is immense. Comparing the playability of the two isn't fair. parts bent with lead will be hugely variable. You may find the holy grail amongst an army of duds. If you bend a bell not like an animal, every horn may be the holy grail.

    This includes some fairly major announcements/insights: 1) The future Bach 229 C trumpets will not have Bach 229 bells, but rather a new design (shouldn't that get a new #??). 2) For the first time in over 100 years, Bch design is no longer done at Bach. 3) You are setting-up to use a cookbook and bake bells instead of torch annealing 4) You are making Holton leadpipes - as there were many different ones, which ??? (Any chance you might start making those stop rod screws and nuts for the assorted generations of Holton trumpets/cornets that are always missing?)

Mager's Feb 3 1947 appears to be the first actually built with that bell, but then there are at least as many, if not more, retrofits of earlier horns in the 48-51 period than new builds 48-53. Roy Hempley always lamented the difficulties in finding unaltered examples - would love to hear more on the pedigree.
